Okay, now you are all banding up against me? 😈
As for the stick thing, I could imagine that one could turn the head toward the attacker (as if about to spin into him), then maybe pluck the stick forward to one side, which should create enough space to slip out or at least turn. One could also pluck forward on one side of the stick and push back on the other, creating an opening, then slip out. Haven’t tried this yet, but in theory… 🙂
